3D Printed Model of Luna's Chariot

[zombienixon]

I'm selling a 3D Printed model of Luna's Chariot, based off of the one shown in Luna Eclipsed.

It's scaled for the Brushable Luna in the Cadance mold (Pictured below is a Brushable Cadance in the chariot for scale).

It's a fairly large model, 8" long x 6 3/8" tall, and 3 5/8" wide.  The model is created from thin (0.1mm/.004") layers of colored gypsum powder held together with cyanoacrylate (super glue).

For the coloring, since the chariot is only shown in shadows in the show, I based it off of the Castle Creator vector.

Some of my own touches include front and rear suspension, and gold-colored wheel hubs with a relief in the shape of Luna's cutie mark.

My asking price is $130 plus shipping. I may be able to go lower by a few dollars, but I really can't go much lower than what it is now.

It looks really great! I was super tempted by it on ebay, I do wish the wheels turned though

I decided against making it with rolling wheels early on.  If the wheels move, it makes it more of a pain to keep it still, and I wouldn't want one of these rolling off of a shelf. Plus, designing a setup for rolling wheels within the constraints of the material would have been a huge pain.

Can you print it in other materials?  Or I guess the colored sandstone is probably the cheapest, right?

It looks really fabulous, but the sandstone is so fragile, one fell swoop of a cat's paw and it's all over... (according to my poor poor Chrysalis)

Actually, it is available in White Flexible Plastic, but it will need to be painted. For that matter, I have ordered one such model for someone else (the 3D Printing service I use doesn't ship to PO Boxes), but If I don't get any response from them after I get it, I can sell it to you.

Sure!

Looks perfect to me! Wonderful details, I love the little touches you added.

It's still hard for me to get over the fact that 3D printers aren't just science fiction... the whole idea just seems so unreal. That's why I always love seeing the results!

That is seriously cool.  I love the idea of 3D printing, I find it totally fascinating!  So you actually have one for yourself?  *is super jelly*

I think that zombie had the design printed on shapeways, at least I'm pretty sure I've seen that design on there before (maybe I'm crazy)

[zombienixon]

Yes, I have the white plastic version on sale at my Shapeways shop. The full color version is not, since I'd like to make some changes to the design.

Wow! This is very cool. I love that its to such a perfect scale as well. Nice work.

This is absolutely unbelievable, amazing job on this! It looks so scary delicate D: just brilliant work, though
